Comments on Trump's transgender decision

[audaciousbeing]

No matter the brain and reasons behind the decision to ban transgenders from serving the motherland is sure a form of discrimination what I would have expected is for the government to hands off their special treatment because that would be unfair to the straight guys who would be encouraged to go that path because of the special treatment they enjoy. The moment that is settled anyone who wishes to still be in the military would do so on his own accord while others will willingly retire or resign to pursue other endeavors rather than setting the country on another round of protest via Twitter.

The American military is already full of gays and lesbians. Perhaps Trump is right in deciding that the transsexuals doesn't deserve a place there. If transsexuals are recruited in to the army, then they will start drama by agitating for their right to enter women's rest-room, while flashing their dicks. This can't be allowed in the military.

The army is no place for transgender people. The military should deal with their direct duties of protecting the state. I highly doubt that transgender people will undergo psychological tests required for military service. If I had my way I would have added to the list of prohibitions for gays and lesbians.

Until a couple of years ago, gays and lesbians were not recruited in to the American military. But the PC brigade had their way, and they had them included. The next is transgenders. And after that it will be pedophiles and the zoophiles.

Zoophiles could be an asset when deployed in deep, deep, deep, deep undercover missions in Afghanistan.

Not just in Afghanistan, but all around the world. Even now the American army is full of perverts, as seen from incidents such as the Abu Ghraib prison scandal and the rape of Abeer Qassim Hamza al-Janabi.

Bottom line--these are human beings, and these decisions have real implications. Have the decency to at least call a press conference and sound sincere. Yet another tweet that should never have been made. Didn't even do the Army and the Joint chiefs the decency of warning them he'd be tweeting up a storm again.

Frankly, just because the liberal community and it's gay fascist subset decided to loudly proclaim rights of transgenders starting about two years ago, does not mean it's actually an important issue.

It's not important, in terms of the numbers of people affected or the interests of society.

Bottom line--no reason for a press conference.

Just a tweet does fine.

Military Disqualifications

The military has an extensive list that will disqualify you from joining. The various sections of the military are different and there is always the potential to receive a waiver that will allow you to join. Basically the military wants people that are mentally and physically sound and of high moral character. Like all employers the military really knows the type of person that best fits their organizations and if you are disqualified for any reason you will want to think and discuss this with the your enlistment officer and your family and think carefully about whether you should really get a waiver to join.

Enlistment standards for joining the military include:

    Citizenship. You must be a US citizen or be a permanent immigrant with a green card.

    Age. No one younger than 17 and older than 42 may enlist. Each section of the military also has its own specific guidelines.

    Credit and finances. You must not have serious amounts of debt or have a history of credit issues.

    Single parents and applicants with dependents are usually disqualified. If you have dependents at all, you will need to show adequate support for them. If you are married to a military member and have children, you will be unable to join.

    Education. Applicants generally must have a high school diploma. In some cases a GED is accepted, and in very rare cases people without schooling are accepted.
    Drug and alcohol dependency, use or involvement can disqualify you.

    Medical disqualifications. Any serious mental or physical illness or trait can disqualify you from joining. You must be physically fit.
    Criminal history. Any offense that results in conviction is usually disqualifying.

    Sexual conduct. Deviant sexual behavior will disqualify you from joining.

    Height standards. You must be between 60-80 inches tall for men and 58-72 inches tall for women.

The military can also reject you for any other reason not listed above. Remember: serving is a privilege; not a right.

Sounds like President "Up Like Trump!" was 110% right. Good for him.
